I think it is better to expand entities upon upload and store them as UTF-8 characters, if at all possible. Best regards -- Tibor Simko

The invasion of the XML entities
Hi folks, here at ADS we have a few records containing XML entities. I know that for some (all?) of the format elements it is possible to set the "escape" option to 0 in order to prevent the escaping of the strings. That's what we've been doing in order to allow the usage of HTML tags. However in the example attached, we have XML entities both in the title and in the abstract. The abstract seems to be correctly unescaped but the title remains escaped leading to some bad results (Title is "Электронна яjтеория м ..."). I don't seem to be able to find the cause of this weird behavior. Maybe one of you can? Cheers, Benoit.
